So, in less than his first 100 days, B.O. passed his Economic Tankulus (sorry, "stimulus") bill. Now, not even a week into that bill, he is already talking about how he intends to halve our trillion dollar deficit by 2013.
This should tell people that it's obvious even to the socialists (I'm about done calling them liberals) that lower taxes and no deficit is good for our country. Otherwise, why on earth would B.O. already be talking about getting rid of half the deficit.
Here are a couple of reasons:
1) He's already campaigning for 2012 re-election (duh!)
2) The goal of the "Big Bailout" was never designed to be an economic stimulus. It was a ruse to pass a truckload of liberal legislation. Don't believe me? Read the bill and all the fine print...including what Harry Reid (D-NV) hand wrote just before delivering to B.O. for his signature.
3) The ingenuity and entrepreneurial spirit of the American small business owner will continue to help drive our great Republic forward - and the Dems want to take credit for a market that gets corrected during B.O.'s Presidency...so they start talking now about all that will have been accomplished by 2013 (one year into a presumptuous second B.O. term).
One very frustrating thing that hit me today is that I have no way of knowing whether or not we, as a country, have a $10 billion deficit or a $5 trillion deficit. Who holds that checkbook? Who is personably responsible for showing the American people how this all works? I have no idea how to know if our politicians, or more to the point - if our President is telling the truth on our deficit and financial situation of our country.
